Precedent, therefore, did. not bear gentlemen out in the assertion that all nominations heretofore ; made, were, when great principles were involved. Mr.! B. was opposed to tne passage ot trie rrcampie.ana Resolutions on another ground: they contain ed grave charge agamst Members of Con gress who met in . Caucus. It was assertecL in substance, in the Preamble, that they jp-re guilty ot the crime ot perjury, by Violating the spirit of the constitution which thev had sworn to support. This, he said, was a re flection on three Of the distineuuhed indivi duals who were candidates for the Presiden cy, MrClay, Mr. Crawford, and Mr. Calhoun, aU of whom had attended . meetings of th's kind, some of tlem more than once. . .Their characters were the property of the nation; and he was' not' disposed, by adopting the principles of the preamble, to sanction the degrading jcharge pf perjury; which it made against those persons and all -other, who had attended such meetings; as if it is a violation of;thspirii of, the cqpstitutlon now, it was equally so heretofore.

I dm ifouse cannot have forgotten the immi nent danger to which our constitution had been exposed, on a former occasion, when the election was thrown into the House of Representatives; the spirit of party was pit pared to sacrifice it at the Unhallawed shrine of ambition: a powerful faction; iff Congress, ooiajv spoke ot making a President by lawr wnicn would nave produced an the' horror of a civil war.
